Configure Offline Address Book Distribution Properties

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

For each offline address book (OAB) distribution point in Exchange Server 2010, you can configure two URLs—an internal URL that can be accessed only from your internal corporate network and an external URL that can be accessed from the Internet.
